For THE GOOD OF THE TowN.-As
the weather Is growing cooler and the
nights longer, young and old, but es-
pecially the young, may well look about
TO find the best and pleasantest means
Of spending their leisure time most |
proGtably. The home talent ought to
be developed in at least some branches,
such as literature. OratOry. music. and |
therefor the foundation of a society or
that require study and appli-
cation Of the members, with weekly
meetings for practice or public exercise
should be encouraged. Gatherings of
this kind may prove of infinite benefit
10 our young people and will certainly
deal blow, at least for one evening in
the week, to the abominable habit OF
Ioaflng In stores and hotels. Let Mill
helm get up some society either OF lit. |
